I think what Unc Tater played with Hartford is a prime example,so any Hartford 
Stringband clips on Youtube should do the trick. No one single pattern 
really,but still heavy on the down stroke,and in the pocket on the one-but 
still not a chop(I can hear notes ringing). A shuffle,perhaps? It sounds very 
"fiddle" to me. I hear oldtime banjo influence in there too,with 7 chords over 
the 1,and majors over minors.
I can't explain it,and I probably don't do it right,but I love it.

Chunka-chunka,
